Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by Archaeology South-East on land south of Water Lane, Angmering, West Sussex, between the 20th and 29th June 2016. The fieldwork was commissioned by CgMs Consulting. The evaluation was carried out subsequent to a recent geophysical survey, which identified a number of ditches forming a complex of enclosures and trackways, centred on the southern part of the site. The evaluation established that this complex originated in the Late Bronze Age/earliest Iron Age and appeared to continue in use throughout the Iron Age and into the early Roman period. A number of associated features including extensive occupation spreads and possible evidence for salt production and small scale metal working were also identified within this complex. In addition, the evaluation identified a field system of medieval date in the western part of the site and a small assemblage of residual flint from later deposits indicated probable transient early prehistoric activity in the vicinity of the site |
